“Due to an exclusivity agreement with Microsoft, the content will not be released on PS3.”

Ha, that was a low blow. You might as well have put “@Alakratt” at the front!!

I’m blowing raspberries at everyone who told me that the initial patch story was old (so I deleted it!) and they got it last year!

Stupid PC patch didn’t fix my radio problems but managed to break alt-tabbing into the game.

I bought the PS3 version of Fallout 3 even tough I do own a 360 and was very well aware that the 360 version was better looking and will have DLC. But I really hate to see these silly games being played with exclusive DLC. Take that Microsoft!

@ SticKboy

Dude, I’m too busy watching TourettesGuy videos at work to be getting mad at your comment.

Anyway, question, I already got a patch for my version (yes, the PS3 one) but I’m reading quite a few articles on todays patch and they’re saying that it would be released on all platforms today, is this true?

EDIT: FUCK SALT!!!
EDIT#2: Here’s the link to the vids: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3775934817379321852

Enjoy!

@ Alakratt
AFAIK the new (second) patch contains a lot of bug fixes too, in addition to the preparation for the DLC (360/PC).
So why not release these bug fixes for PS3 along the way with a patch?
